Here's the situation that I'm stuck in--- Must see providers I'm not interested in to get references to provide to providers that I really do want to see...

Luckily, one lady that I'm really interested is willing to see me without the obligatory two references with a basic plus membership with P411

Unfortunately, there isn't much you can do other than look for newbie friendly providers.  P411 does allow their providers to indicate if they are newbie friendly.  Suggest you look for them in your area.  Hopefully you will get lucky, see a couple ladies and get some references for the future.

Good luck,
Swim

Thanks Swim

You have to pay for and plod through the boring required course before you get to take the courses you really want.

But if you pay attention and work hard you can still learn a lot from those boring required courses.  You might even change your major!
